Chrysler :: Wheels Spinning Off And On 10 Minute
Feb 21, 2011
I got stuck on ice. FrontWD. Wheels spinning off and on 10 minutes. Got towed. Front end was vibrating btwn 40 and 60 afterwards. Mechanic rebalanced tires and wheels, told me I had damaged wheels from potholes, burnt out the ABS sensors in front, overheated all the brake components, and needed new everything, pads, rotors etc. Brakes are 3 months old. I decided to wait. He put everything back on. No more vibration. Brakes seem fine. What to do?

It's a 2002 Pt Cruiser. I think it's the ball bearing but I don't really know. Car got stuck in some snow a few days ago and we were unable to get it out even after digging it out from the snow.. Seemed like the right tire wasn't spinning or gripping. We got someone to pull us out and it's driving fine, no problems but when I try to drive up our driveway that has a slight hill, it is having troubles and barely makes it up and seems like the right tire is vibrating and not spinning properly. There is no humming noise. Just a vibrating when trying to drive up my icy muddy driveway. Could this be something else besides a bearing? I'll be making an appt with my mechanic tomorrow but typically it's a one week wait to see him and I have to work this week so can't just not drive it.

Yesterday I was parked on an incline with my front wheels on gravel and the rear wheels on wet grass/mud. When I tried to go, the rear wheels started spinning. I then switched on the low 4x4, and tried to go. The rear wheels continued to spin, but the front did not turn. I had new wheels installed, that has a cap that covers the manual locking hub, so I couldn't turn it to lock the hub. What should I look for to fix the problem?

So I need to get this top nut off the strut and as you can see the strut mount is just dangling there, the spring is compressed and everything is ready to be removed - even when I use pliers to hold the shaft tight from behind the strut mount, the nut still spins freely, but refuses to come loose. It spins freely in either direction - won't tighten, won't loosen.
The strut has barely 4k on it so I didn't think the threads were the problem, rather the nut itself I assumed.

What is the easiest way to know that the engine is spinning? I know that above 41 MPH it will but how do I know if it is at other times?
I have Microchip PIC hooked up to my car where I can see RPM's and if the engine is getting fuel but I'd like to put another parameter on the screen where it says "ICE SPINNING!"

Not getting any cold air. A/C compressor is not spinning. Fuses look ok. What else can I check before I take it to a shop?

I got in my car this morning. When I went to crank it, the starter just started spinning. It kept spinning while the key was on. It never kicked in and engaged. What the fix will be? How do you remove the starter?

So far I've been through 1 set of tires (after 12,000 miles), stepper motor, new cd changer, trouble with TPMS system and more Now that my stepper motor is replaced (dealer said he wasn't aware of any widespread trouble with this part, what a joke) I hear a humming noise, constant from rear axle area, drowned out by engine while driving. Noise sounds like a fan spinning or electronic interference you might get if your cell phone is close to a computer or tv with volume off. I don't recall this noise previously although I rarely drive this car it's my wife's.

I've been getting a spinning/whirring noise from the transmission when shifting from 1st to 2nd. It only lasts a few seconds, and seems to occur between 1st and 2nd. Since the transmission is still covered under warranty, I went to a dealer. I knew I needed a new clutch, so I had to let the dealer do the clutch replacement in order to get to the transmission. Once inside, they found my release bearing in several pieces, as well as "damaged gears." VW agreed to replace the transmission, but I still have the spinning noise. The car has 96K miles.

Name that sound!!! It's coming from the rear. Sounds like a spinning creak sound kind of rattly. Always after cold starts it's more prevalent. Happens in first and second gear mostly at 3-4k rpm... Not as noticeable when warmed up but still there. Can't figure it out....

I replaced some TYC OEM headlights on my car with stock OEM Hella headlights and cleaned up the lenses really nice.
Once installed, I went to adjust the headlights to find out that the passenger outer adjustment just spins.
This is the one in the photo:
I am not too sure if I can fix this. The little wheel doesn't seem like it can be removed and it has some back and forth play on it.
Need to successfully repaired headlight adjustment?

How to keep the driveshaft from spinning while I undo the 10mm 12pts? It just seems around enough to slightly scare me into thinking the car might move, and I can't seem to break them loose.

2008 5.4L triton. When I'm in the snow or mud and engage the 4 wheel drive I hit the gas and I can hear what I think it is the hub spinning but it will not turn the wheel. Hoping it is not my transfer case...

On a 2ZR-FE 1.8L what keeps the cam bearing shells from spinning? This would be the shells closest to the cam chain, sprockets etc.
Are there the little tabs that are bent out at the end of the shell like a rod bearing, or are they locked into position as the cam cap is tightened?

While coming home tonight in a snow/ice storm I got stuck in a drift at the end of our driveway. After some shoveling we got out, but there was some spinning tires before we got enough traction to go. A short time later when we opened the car door there was a warning sound and, after starting the car, the brake/abs warning lights came on.

I had the weirdest noise in my prius this morning when I started it. This was the first really cold morning so far ( 24) and Ive had the car a few months now, new to me 2010. When I started it, it went clunk clunk clunk like something was spinning in the gear box and hitting something as it came around, possibly from generator box too. Car was in park when this happend and during the initial startup. Then it quickly got less and went away within about 20 secs. This wasn't some light sound either, pretty loud and If I would have got under the hood fast enough I could have tracked it down maybe. Also on a side note the previous day I got a weird yellow light on for no reason under heavy acceleration. It was the yellow light with 4 tires in it showing sliding. Anyway it was on for about a min then went out. Dry road no sliding of any kind. I continued to drive the car 140 miles today without an issue.

The 4 wheel drive on my Ford Ranger goes out all the time. Today it stopped working in 14" of new snow, and when I was stuck in my driveway in PARK, my rear right wheel was still spinning? What might this mean?

I just might be out of luck but wanted to check here first. My driver side lower control arm is dangerously rusted. I bought a replacement and was able to get everything undone except 1 of the 2 bolts that go into the sub-frame. The one towards the rear of the vehicle came out ok. The one towards the front of the vehicle just spins. I have read that it is probably a welded nut to the frame that has broken free and is just spinning inside the frame.
I have seen pictures and another thread on here (but for a santa-fe) where the owner had just drilled a 1 3/4" hole through the bottom of the subframe to grab that nut. Well mine is in a location that a 1 3/4" hole would almost be more than the width of the frame itself. So I thought maybe just a "slit" in the frame so I can get a open end wrench up there to grab the nut. I drilled just a test drill to see where I would land, sure that I would be past the end of the bolt. But I wasn't. I can see the threads of the bolt.
